Candra, you can't beat Tina inwriting lol. But the good thing is that everyone writes words of substance and not gibberish :-)), so we are never bored.I was reading your meal, do u think you may need a few more calories? Are you doing salads? It's interesting the day before yesterday I ate a little more and I dropped weight, then I ate exactly as stage IV menu indicated and I gained! What's up with that.The body is weird indeed.

Reggie, you may be right - when I was eating 4 to 5 small meals a day I was losing like crazy but then Robin got on me with the 3 times a day only and the weight loss slowed way down - actually stopped - LOL. I haven't been eating salads because Robin said "salad is not your friend" hahaha. I think I was doing better before a dietician entered the scene. I'm gonna give it till Monday, ive decided, to weigh in since I've only just started the C25K program - hoping the joggin a little bit - ramping up my heart beat will help. If not, I'm going back to MY WAY!

Donna, you didn't bore me with it :) You are right but i don't know what else to do - doc won't give me one! Just keeps telling me to lose weight - even the sleep study doctor said the same thing - I don't qualify for a machine based just on the waking up so much thing I guess.

Riley, I'm gonna look for that form & see if I can bring it to my PCP - maybe if I'm annoying enough they'll give in LOL

Has anyone noticed that since we started posting our menu for the day on here it has caused you to journal again? AND actually watch what your eating a bit more??

Tired just got in from work........ahh

food situation was fine today. I had people come up all day commenting on my weight loss. Sorta uncomfortable with all the attention. I think it was cause I work 16's today instead of 18s Cause I weigh the same today as yesterday and not one said anything yesterday. I am switching to 14//16 tops and 16 bottoms and they actually fit.....most of the time.

B: 1/3 cup lentils 140

L: Egg salad sandwich but really hard to get down 480

Skinny vanilla Latte 90

D: Probably lentils 1/3 cup 140

gotta get some sleep I am exhausted and what is this about me being the "queen of the writing pen!!" Never!! LOL. I write like I talk........ALOT!!

Today was crazy at work. Butting heads with my supervisor over the court case. I just have a hard time backing down when I know I am right.........It was an issue of right and wrong to me. I did NOT agree with removing these kids from the home it was not a legally sound case. and after two days of going back and forth the judge took my side!!! I tried really hard not to rub in it to my sup but I have been around CPS longer than her and I worked in the courts for two years.........I know the freaking laws!!!

I do notice with the weight lose I don't back down as easy anymore I stand up for what I think is right. But good grief I hope I still have a job on MOnday...........my supervisor was not happy and even more she was not happy the judge took my side in the whole thing. Trying not to get involved in controversy next week...............stresses me out to much!! But to distracted to eat so that is good!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
